Tommy '2 point' Tupa

For today’s Throwback Thursday we’re going back to Week 1 of the 1994 NFL Season. During a Cleveland Browns & Cincinnati Bengals battle, our dude Tommy Tupa grabs the distinction of being the first player in NFL History to score a 2 point conversion. The 2 point rule had just been adopted that season, and Tom & The Browns took advantage of it. He would run in three extra point attempts for Two that year earning himself the nickname of ‘Two Point Tupa.’ Happy Birthday Tom!
